I've notice in the last few months that Wikipedia is expending a lot of energy internalizing the links on their Website. This became too obvious when they deleted the List_of_news_aggregators Wikipage. The reasons given include...
The page was clearly not external link spam. This is not the first recent instance where I've seen pages get deleted because of external links that I thought were entirely useful. If Wikipedia is gonna start removing outbound links, then I'm gonna stop creating inbound links. Also, I'm going to grab the last good version of that page and host it on this blog.
Update: I found out that once a Wikipedia article is deleted that you can't get at the history. A lot of people, including myself, put a lot of effort into maintaining that list. Now because of the Wikipedia zealots, all the information appears to be lost forever. Thus I changed the title of this blog entry from Wikipedia internalizing to Wikipedia sucks! This is no longer a community project, it's a bureaucratic black-hole. If anybody can recover that content and send it to me via email or post it in my comments, then I'd be greatly appreciative.
I finally went back on there and refered to user: pigsonthewing as a demimondane twinkletoes birdwatcher. This was on another user's page and didn't name him specifically but he found out anyway. He and the adminstrators got real unhappy about that.
The boy had gotten upset about something I posted-possibly the picture of a hunter crouching over a dead feral hog and went through several of my articles deleting stuff. He visited the article on the binary explosive target substance tannerite and deleted a series of very good images. Said they werent' relevent. Since when does a birdwatcher from Birmingham UK know or care anything at all about exploding targets??????????
Your a fucker
Gentlemen, Wikipedia was a good attempt but their violations are ridiculious. They told me my CD page which listed tracks on the cd's album art was a violation of fair use because it was a discography? Ridiculious! It was not violation of fair use it was pictures of the CD's which I was listing tracks for, they are liars and more than that remind me of what martial law would be like. Wikipedia is no longer useful to anyone.
PS I'll still never understand how showing scanned images of the CD covers was a violation of fair use, never ever, ever... burn Wikipedia!
its true about the blogtalkradio too
they pay wikipedia to look the other way to their advertising and to also remove any contradictory information which may make them look bad
the creator of wikipedia must be retarded , hes thinkin : a website made by volonteers can be useful and remplace a real uncyclopedia , wtf is that shit
its impossible to control the content , and every moron can post bullshit
Wikipedia is pure propaganda... Try'd to post some information about European Motorhome Brands... Weerd thing is... All german brand pages i start were good and all Frensh/Italian brand i posted got deleted... (Pages were basicly the same). Also posted some information (pure facts) about a motorhome brand witch witch wasn't any article about. And it got delete'd for 'propaganda'... yes PROPAGANDA! WTH do motorhomes have to do with propaganda :S
Fuckers
wikipedia=nazipedia run by corporate fascism
censorship, banning user is a form of control
Wikipedia is falsley advertised as a community site. The truth is unless you are among the small circle of mods or wiki snobs/nazi's anything you post will be deleted.
I posted some corrections and a link (not my site) on one of the investment pages. Keep in mind I have over seven years experience. It was removed, and when I questioned why boom instant ban.
I feel sorry for anyone who uses wikipedia for research, the ammount of errors on that site that are shown as fact are disgraceful.
It's run by a ring of self indulging zealots worldwide (who knows how they even got their power to begin with). True, it's the "encyclopedia" (in quotes due to laughability of wikipedia) that "everyone can edit" - but not everyone can contribute to equally. Trust me, if your edits don't satisfy the moderators and their extremely pedantic and overall worthless personas, they will be removed within minutes. Oh, and fuck all of the wiki fanbois who will constantly link you to wiki articles as if they have more value than graffiti on a derelict building. The world's becoming full of idiots and wikipedia has become a hub for these narcissistic fucks they call administrators.
Fuck Wikipedia !
wikipedia are a bunch of senator mccain suppoting cunts who want to drive this country into more illegal wars
mind you i hear a company mentioned below called blogtalkradio is a major investor of wikipedia, and the founders of that company are 2 people who were prosecuted for insider trading on the stock market in the early 90s
So I now tend to regard Wikipedia, as useful - but not the kind of a place or event I want to associate with nor support.
These scribbling pharisees and and their ganging up on people with their rules and banning them and getting their jollies out of fucking with everyone else and their contributions - if you arseholes want Wikipedia all to your very own selves - you can also pay for it.
I like many, many, many other contributors who have left am saying - "You can all go drown, all by yourselves in your own shit - we have better things to do".

Eat shit arseholes.
The fact is - what started out as a good intention to spread information freely over the net has become a business venture - extremely controlled and forceably ignoring any outside potential to increase visibility of anything outside the realm of creating income for the 35 people at Wiki.
It's a business, and you're best to click around it. Why do 35 people need hundreds of millions of dollars to run a website, greed, and the solid explanation of what's wrong with business and the economy today.
Wiki - BURN!
Yeah, Fuck Wkipedia !!!!!!!!!! It IS FULL OF SHIT FOR ASSHOLES NOW. IT DOESN"T EVEN KNOW WHAT CONSTANT MOTION IS AND ONLY SAID IT WAS A SONG WHEN I SEARCH THE DIFINATION UP ON GOOGLE.
Those fuckers are giving fake information to everyone. Ddose IT !
